District 2 of the Yiwu Market serves as a central hub for iconic products from various cities, making it a competitive player on the global stage compared to District 1.
For example, Yongkang is renowned for its hardware tools, leading to a concentration of suppliers from Yongkang in District 2. Similarly, suppliers of watches and clocks often hail from Shenzhen, while Zhongshan is the primary source for lamps.
This diversity means that District 2 not only hosts large manufacturers but also blends branded factories with smaller intermediaries. As a result, while it offers a wealth of options, finding the precise supplier you need might require additional effort.
